What People Are Saying About Summer Shack
The Editor

The Scene – Having successfully opened "shacks" in Cambridge (Alewife) and the Mohegan Sun Casino, local seafood maven Jasper White has also set up shop above the popular Kings bowling alley. A wildly varied crowd of tourists, conventioneers and locals fill the sprawling dining room to sample fresh New England seafood. Pleasant servers deliver fruity house drinks from the large circular bar. – – The Food – The "shack" label is a bit disingenuous: How many shacks, after all, serve almond-crusted flounder, or spinach and rock shrimp salad with warm bacon dressing?

horrible restaurant
by Sarita8219 at Citysearch
i was recently vacationing in boston when we decided to get some oysters at the summer shack. being from texas i couldn't wait to get some amazing oysters...i did NOT find anything amazing here. I was starving when we arrived and i was Starving when we left. Yet, i still managed to spend 40 dollars. I shared a dozen oysters for 33 dollars and only ate 3. I consider myself an oyster lover and do not mind at all to pay for good food but i definitely had the hardest time paying for this awful dinner. I ordered the shrimp salad and could not even eat it, i had 4 of my friends taste it to see if maybe i was being picky. They thought it was just as disgusting. All in all definitely the worst food i have probably ever eaten.... or not eaten??? Stay away from this restaurant, it was obviously empty for a reason.
blah!
